deadsp0t reacted to MadeIndelible in Recognizing difficult customers
I'm no tattooer, but it boggles my mind to see people haggle over prices. I wouldn't even haggle in say a marketplace.

Different shops, different rules, different jobs. If there's a price in the wall most shops just charge it beforehand. Payment in advance usually avoids complications. Most street shops charge beforehand, fairly standard.
A lot of 'custom' shops charge afterwards, but some will start with a deposit of the predicted first session. Example would be; a predicted 3 hour session with a shop standard $50 deposit requires a $150 deposit.

deadsp0t reacted to velvetlover36 in Asking a tattoo artist to tattoo someone else's (non-tattoo) art?
Just out of curiosity--and I'm not being confrontational with this question or trying to dismiss your feelings--how exactly do you feel ripped off? I could see if someone was passing off a design/selling it as one of their own, but if someone gets that image tattooed on them, I don't really see it as the creator of said image being ripped off. I do understand that the tattoo artist is charging the person to tattoo that image on them, but they're charging the person for the work being done on them, not for the image itself. Now if a tattoo artist had someone else's design up on a wall w/o consent and was trying to pass it off as their own, then yeah, I could see where the feeling of being ripped off comes into play...but if an average Joe walks into a shop wanting to get an image tattooed on them, I don't really see it as ripping the artist off.
Now if the image is copyrighted and the tattoo artist still tattoos the image, then I completely understand where feeling ripped off comes into play...but if there is no copyright attached to a piece of work, there's really no way to enforce it.

"I want a sleeve. You know, clouds and stars and shit."
So we did a painting of a sleeve of clouds and stars and....shit. Actual turds, with bits of corn in them and everything. Strangely enough people start to get a bit more specific when we whip it out.

deadsp0t got a reaction from anna in New and hoping for answers
It's easy to be over observant, I know I was, but like was already said after 3-4 weeks you'll know more.. As you get more tattoos you'll start to realize there are no perfect tattoos, if you look hard enough you'll find something. Just give it some time.. And even if it's never 'perfect' just get a new tattoo lol
